We specialize, exclusively, in providing travel in Russia for discerning individuals who seek experiences and insights which leave one with vivid, lasting memories of Russian people and places and a profound awareness of this amazing country.

Our thematic programs within St. Petersburg and Moscow are unique because:

• You will visit historic and artistically notable sites – palaces, cathedrals, museums and parks – and learn about people and events which made them so;

• Your explorations will be led by scholars and curators who have spent their lives in pursuit of understanding;

• You will learn about Romanov tsars, Soviet dictators and “new” Russians – all of whom have contributed to the “opulent Russian style”; 

• Through special arrangements, you will attend performances and view collections not available to any but the most discriminating visitors;

• Unlike many “tours”, you will have the time and opportunity to truly immerse yourself in Russian art, history and culture – with a chance to explore these Russian cities on your own, should you so desire.

Winston Churchill characterized Russia as “…a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma."  Our goal is to ensure that your Russian experience is as rich, intriguing, expansive and thought-provoking as the country itself.

The two programs currently being offered are:

     ST. PETERSBURG: “PAVLOVSK - THE LIFE OF AN IMPERIAL PALACE”

     MOSCOW: “THE HEART OF RUSSIA”
